I can also confirm that the folder "IC Camera Work" mentioned in the video F103-03-06  is not present in the Custom>Props folder, and can also not be found anywhere in the unzipped F103 files. :Whistling:

Hi everyone.  I have just received notification from my contacts at Reallusion that the F104 video delivery has been fixed and re-uploaded to user accounts.  That should mean that you can now re-download the video content from you account if you wish and hopefully this time around it will be correct.

Again sorry about this and please let me know if it it either working OK or indeed not fixed if it turns out that remains the case?


Hi Alan,
I can confirm that the 104 series videos have been corrected in the downloads, but you have to delete the video folder first or it will only replace the correct files. :)
I like the format myself, I used SMPlayer to make playlists of the chapters once I saw how they were separate small videos, no big deal.  What I like about SMPlayer is that it remembers where I left off even if in the middle of a video. 

I personally think these type of training videos are long over due and wish something like this was available when I first jumped into iClone 5, I have a bad habit of only learning what I need to know to do a certain thing, which has left a lot of gaps in what I need to know now, so these courses will definitely help me to get on track and speed up my work flow.  Good Job Alan! :)

I can confirm the duplicate videos in F104.

I would also really like to know just who came up with the glorious idea of wasting users' time by forcing them to constantly load clips under 30 secs in a video player!!!! :alien::w00t: A first term AE could have edited the stuff into a meaningful length using Windows Media player. :Whistling:


Gerry greetings, as mentioned earlier in this thread we are happy to receive comments about the course material both good and bad.  I will pass your comments onto MakingMovies.  I am not trying to duck the issue here other than to state that although I designed and recorded all the material the actual editorial, by that I mean the editing and titles cards etc, was handled by MakingMovies which was the arrangement due not only to the volume of work involved but also the fact that they were funding the creation of the course.  We had quite a few discussions about length of videos as if you look at the likes of Lynda.com they general do not have any video shorter than about a one minute, though there are a few.  Also the length was an issue too with their videos being anywhere from a few minutes to 15-20 minutes in length.  Very seldom it seems that a recording of more than 20 minutes was considered a good thing.  When I was on a roll mentally some of my recordings ran to an hour of more.  With those it was felt we should go through the recordings and find natural break points and chop them into shorter segments.  I fully take on board your comments about the really short videos and will pass on your comments.  Also Reallusion wanted me to do a lot of to camera presentations which as you might be aware most trainers tend not to do so some of those are also short and sweet as to do those I need to use a tele-prompt. So very time consuming and they needed to be kept short to avoid errors and reduce the amount of time it take to set your room up with lighting/camera etc.

Thank you for you comments I will take them on board and also pass them on to MakinMovies.

I use VLC Media Player to play videoclips and there you can create a playlist to see all parts without a break. You can jump through the playlist and save it for later use.

I manually deleted all those duplicates and yes it's correct. But I still hope RL fix this in the first place before they put them in the content store so it can save us lots of time. That said, your trainging courses is very helpful to me, plz keep up the good work! I'll be the first one to buy them.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.  I am including a list of all the videos in this course for you to check.  Having looked at your screen grab it looks like the course is incomplete regardless of the annoying duplicates but it would be good to confirm this if you have the time.  I have checked the delivery folder on the server that Reallusion has access to and I can find no issues with the contents  In fact the list that you see here is a listing of that very folder.  My best guess is an error was made when Reallusion packaged up the contents of that folder for delivery but I cannot state that for a fact as I do not work directly for RL so did not play a part in the packaging and marketing.

Having said that it is a big error for which I apologise.  I have notified Reallusion and asked them to not only check the delivery but also to get back to me when it is fixed so that I can make sure everyone is aware that it has been dealt with.

In the interim here is the list of videos that should be there for the F104 course:

There are so many repetitive content in F104: Light & Render! When I unzip part 1, i.e., iClone_6_Fundamentals_F104_Light_Render1, this is what I got (as shown in the picture below): it shows there're 83 files in total, but after I play them one by one, most of them are repetitive, they're just duplicates. These courses are very useful, please check this issue and fix it.
